I just wanted to post proposed tournament dates for the Orlando area. I have based the dates around school holidays for Osceola County when possible. I would like feedback from potential players, including those of you who may come this way on vacation (all dates are Saturdays):
I currently have an application for January 16th (Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend), but that one has not been approved yet. I'll let you know when I know.
February 20th (Rodeo Day weekend for Osceola County)
March 20th (first official day of Spring)
April 10th (Florida Spring Break, but not the weekend of Easter)
These dates are tentative. I can offer either a local or district. Post or PM any thoughts or suggestions.

I like those dates. Uh, I'd do 2 districts 2 locals for those. Then a state ;)
-
What will be the times for these events and which catagories would you be offering?
-
All start times would be 9am, otherwise we would not finish all categories before bedtime. We can double up categories when there are more than three (i.e. all districts). We can negotiate what categories take place at what times. For example, with the number of players I have, a Type I 2-player category would require four rounds, which would take four hours. Multiplayer games require less rounds, but there is still only so much time in the day. We could probably bump a local tournament to a noon start time, but it would not end until late at night. So, for those of you driving many hours, you either have to drive early in the morning or late at night. Remember that crashing at my house is always an option.
As far as categories:
Locals will always include Type I 2-player and Type I multiplayer, since those are the preferred category of my playgroup. I will try to include either Booster Draft or Sealed Deck (sometimes both). If the January 16th tournament is approved, it will have Sealed Deck (using E/F decks).
Districts ar more flexible. The Type I categories will of course be there, as well as one or both of the closed deck categories, but I am open to Type II categories that will be played at the same time as one of the other categories. If anyone is interested in Type II, please PM or post so I can be sure to include them. I may simply include all categories, but that costs more so I want confirmation of interest first.
Then a state ;)
That is part of the master plan. I currently attend Faith Christian Center in Clermont. They are building a new 2,000-seat sanctuary that will be done for Easter. After that, their current multipurpose building will be more available. I'm hoping that the church will approve Redemption and allow me to start using that building for tournaments, including States. Things can change between now and then, but my current plan is to put it an application for a Florida State Tournament.
